“THEY FEED HERE AND LIVE THERE”: BORDERWORK WITH WILDLIFE IN SLOVENIA’S NORTH-EAST CORNER“TU SE HRANIJO, TAM PA ŽIVIJO”: IZDELOVANJE MEJE Z DIVJADJO V SEVEROVZHODNEM KOTU SLOVENIJE

This paper explores how wildlife’s purposeful migrations across the Hungarian-Slovenian border engenders relations between nonhumans and humans and stimulates people’s borderwork activities. Following a lead from Stef Jansen’s argument about the incompatibility of symmetrical and asymmetrical treatment of humans and nonhumans, the author performs a two-step analysis of animals’ involvement in borderwork. *** Avtor v clanku raziskuje vprasanje, kako namerno gibanje divjadi cez madžarsko-slovensko mejo ustvarja razmerja med ljudmi in neljudmi ter spodbuja cloveska dejanja izdelovanja meje. Pri tem sledi argumentom Stefa Jansena o nezdružljivosti simetricne in asimetricne obravnave ljudi in neljudi, zato izvede temu ustrezno dvostopenjsko analizo vloge živali v izdelovanju meje.
